Your photo of the grey boat has to be Alumacraft Queen Merrie from the early 60's as it has all the lines and bow design of the larger 17-18 footer. It has the waterline outer band and a D-shaped transom. My grandfather bought this exact boat in the mid 60's in the Brown and White paint pattern with the matching Brown & White Evinrude 75 HP outboard just like the Brochure you attached. Today my family still owns and skis off it every Summer in the Adirondacks in New York. It is all Yellow now, and we use a 90 HP Yamaha 2 stroke which makes it go! She is old but she is a classic. Still has the original windshield somehow.
